TNA is under the impression that if they allow Angle to coach, that the IFL would push Angle's involvement in TNA on it television shows.

TNAWrestlingNews.com is reporting that Judas Mesias returned to action last week in Mexico. However, he can hardly do a thing in the ring because he's too hurt.
